Back in 84, I had a teacher that would consider it a "tardy". When the bell goes, you are in the room or "tardy". 2 "tardy" = 1 unexcused absence. 4 unexcused absences = 1 letter grade. Make an "A" and if you are "tardy" 8 times and you got a "B". Mrs Lake Cooper. Calc I

Back in 85, my other instructor would mark his timetable on his office door. If he had a 1240 class, it would show Room XYZ at 1235. Barring a snowstorm, his bet was that he would give everyone in class ahead of him $5 if he was late. Nobody I know of has collected. Class has pop quizzes. Bell rings, door closes. After he hands out the quizzes, you don't get to take it if you aren't there and he has turned students away for that. Mr Dennis Karwatka. Quality Control.
